Minor ODBC weirdness

I just packaged an application that requires a System DSN.

For some reason, I couldn't get the natively installed application to see the DSN - it looks OK in ODBC Admin, it just doesn't work.

I suspect a 32bit vs 64bit issue, but I haven't been able to nail it down yet.

I did, however, find a workaround:

Using the cmd.exe debug entry point to launch odbcad32 in the virtual environment, I could create a DSN useable by the packaged application.

Added it to the package through smbmerge, rebuilt, and I have a working Thinapp.

Weird.
